One of our citizens claims he observed
early the other morning curious meteo-
biological phenomena. He says that as
the moon rose bright cross of living

on the face of the moon. The cross was
apparently some ten times the diameter
of the moon in height. Besides this, a
very bright halo surrounded the moon
and on either side appeared what. under
different circumstances, would be called
sun dogs; only it was the moon and not

RELATIVE TO RAILWAYS.
A Trifiing Accident Delays Trains on

the Q.-.Other Railroad News.
A trfling accident caused an agra
waiting delay of passenger trains on the
G., B. g. Q. this morning. Near Orion
two freight cars Jumped the track on
small trestlework, and it was impossible
for trains TO pass until the cars were
righted, unless they were ditched. 1t
was thought best TO replace the cars,
and it took until about 1 1 o'clock to do
so. The consequence was that Conductor
BARRIERS incoming St, Louis train, due
here at $40, and Conductor Parker
train, due at II, did not arrive until IL 80,
when they both came in together. The
accident caused no serious results.

Now it is fact that railroad men as a
rule are most sensible lot of persons.
Their constant contact with new faces
makes them reasonable. 1t is therefore
truthfully said that railroad men are be.
coming civilized A few years ago the
conductor who would not carry himself as
if be owned the universe was a curiosity
while the brakemen and baggsgemen
were objects of awe Now all this semi
barbaric splendor is fading away, and the
railroad men, from freight brakemen to
general managers, are becoming the most
gentlemanly fellows imaginable. In con
versation with an old-timer the other
evening, he remarked that people gener,
ally think that passenger brakemeu make
much more money than fellows who
twist the iron wheel on freight cars. He
said that was mistake, for the freight
men average $40 more per month than
the passenger brakemen. There work
is much more dangerous. aud they are
deserving of it.
